Actually you want the softer shocks in the front and stiffer in the back. It's important for the front end to unload quickly and smoothly and the rear suspension to resist severe squatting which can result in a springing (unloading) that kills traction. I played with my stock worn out shocks a bit. Disconnected the rear shocks and turned the switch to touring to make the fronts softer. Then I turned the rear shocks notches manually to make them stiffer(Don't know how much stiffer it made them but I felt the difference in ride quality). This way I cut my 60' down from 2.2+ to 1.9+. This was all with drag radials that are also worn out by the way. Soon I will have newer suspension parts and tires(hopefully). : Wouldn't you want the shocks softer in the back, so the car squats more when you launch? : Squat= weight transfer to the back of the car, over the driving wheels.
